LED Desktop Clock Proposal
Thursday, July 3rd, 2008
I’m writing this post as a proposal for an umIEEE student workshop project. The project is my LED Pocketwatch, now renamed to become a Desktop Clock. This project is meant as a fun excercise that will give participants some surface mount soldering experience and some knowledge on how a PIC operates and the design process used to create your own projects using EagleCAD to create both home-made etched PCBs and professional quality ordered PCBs.
The Image you see above is a 3D rendering of the latest design of the PCB. The rendering is pretty much true to what I expect to build except for a missing inductor and the wrong capacitor in the PSU, which can be seen along with more details in the photo of the prototype after the jump.
